Chapter 126 - When Uncle Master Become Master After 13
There was a sudden rainstorm, even though Qin Lang had already observed it, the surroundings were deserted. He and Lang Qianxing walked for nearly half an hour and they could only find a dilapidated temple for temporary shelter.
This is the lower realm, which is the mortal world.
Qin Lang is going to leave Tianyun Sect, he naturally has a seal to his own place. Cultivating without cultivation is the way for those powerful people to return to their basics. Naturally, Lang Qianxing would not have any doubts, such as suspecting that Qin Lang deliberately weakened his own strength to give him an opportunity.
He also asked Qin Lang if he needed to temporarily seal his cultivation base. Qin Lang said strangely that the reason why he brought Lang Qianxing out was because Lang Qianxing also needed practice, but it would not be the same method.
What a joke, I say that to you because my cultivation was so high that you didn’t have a chance to start, so I deliberately made a few excuses to seal my cultivation base, okay?
It is summer now in the lower realm, there are many thunderstorms in summer. In order not to shock ordinary people, the place where Lang Qianxing they came down was a sparsely populated mountain and an old forest.
Along the way, the places where the two of them took shelter from the rain were usually caves. Now that they finally encountered a dilapidated temple, it was gratifying. At least it showed that there were traces of people.
It has now been three days since they left Tianyun Sect.
This vacation, uh no, cultivation, Qin Lang reported to his senior brother who is the sect master, and then returned to Qingyun Peak to tell the other two disciples.
Bo Yi shouted, wanting to go out. Seeing that Qin Lang was indifferent, he didn’t dare to mention it after shouting for a while. Zhong Yi said that in the days when Qin Lang was away, he would cultivate well with Bo Yi and would not disappoint Qin Lang’s trust and expectations.
Before leaving, Zhong Yi went to Lang Qianxing’s room and talked to him. When Yun Hua was at Qingyun Peak, and asked him to let the three disciples leave that day, the three of them must have said something. Lang Qianxing did not mention it, nor did Qin Lang ask. After all, it would be too weird for him, the cold master, to go to inquire about the affairs of the disciples.
That Li Xiu also didn’t talk about it. As for Zhong Yi, Qin Lang felt that his vision of seeing people was quite accurate. He should not develop in the opposite direction as he expected.
“Master, your clothes are wet…” When he arrived at the ruined temple, the first thing Lang Qianxing did was to tidy up a clean place for Qin Lang, and then he found some rotten pieces of wood and dry grass to make a fire to dry their clothes.
The rainstorm was so heavy that the umbrella could not fully cover them.
Not only did Qin Lang’s clothes get wet, there was also a lot of mud splashing on his clean boots. As he walked all the way, the blue silk tied by the white headband loosened a few threads, but Qin Lang didn’t feel embarrassed, on the contrary, he seemed to be much more alive and lovely. It seems that he is a delicate young master who can only read and write on weekdays and is at a loss when he is outdoors.
Qin Lang took off his robe, and Lang Qianxing immediately took it. The light cyan clothes carried the person’s cold fragrance. Lang Qianxing turned around, took a few deep breaths greedily, then put the clothes on the wooden rack he had just prepared.
Qin Lang, who accidentally discovered his husband’s idiotic behavior: “…” Husband, I don’t mind you coming to smell me directly.
After finishing Qin Lang’s clothes, Lang Qianxing knelt down in front of Qin Lang on one knee, took out the handkerchief and cleaned Qin Lang’s shoes.
Qin Lang was motionless. From his point of view, Lang Qianxing knelt down in front of him on one knee and took out the handkerchief from his arms was just like taking out a ring to propose marriage, causing his little heart to speed up a little.
Lang Qianxing was half-kneeling, his movements methodical, his attitude humble and pious, as if he was willing to do anything Qin Lang asked him to do. Although he didn’t speak, he seemed to have said everything.
Qin Lang turned his gaze slightly to the side to see the continuous rain outside.
After Lang Qianxing finished cleaning his shoes, he got up and walked out, and then used the rain on the eaves to wash the handkerchief. He looked back at Qin Lang, secretly used a technique to dry the handkerchief, and put it back into his arms. Then he washed his hands with rainwater as if nothing had happened.
“Thinking that I can’t see if I seal the cultivation base?” Qin Lang shook his head helplessly.
“Master…” Lang Qianxing dried the rain on his hands, frowning embarrassedly, “But it’s already dry, do you want to wet it again and put it on the fire to dry it?”
Qin Lang looked at him speechlessly.
The man quickly walked back to him with a pleasing smile and said, “Master, your hair is messed up, Qianxing will comb it for you and tie it again?”
Qin Lang looked into his eyes, his face was reflected in them, there were indeed a few messed up strands of hair.
After getting along for some time, Lang Qianxing has almost been able to figure out Qin Lang’s temper. Most of the time, silence is acquiescence. Just like how he was standing behind him now, untying his ribbon, Qin Lang had no objection to his action.
He was so quiet and docile that Lang Qianxing’s originally noisy heartbeat also quieted down.
The rainstorm is still continuing, pounding on the precarious tiles of the ruined temple, on the lush grass outside the temple, and on the muddy water that has formed a puddle, mixed with the flames inside the ruined temple and the crackling sound of wood burning, it was so noisy, but Lang Qianxing didn’t feel irritated at all.
His hand went through Qin Lang’s black hair and followed it gently with a wooden comb. His movements were incredibly gentle, making Qin Lang feel so comfortable that he couldn’t help but close his eyes.
Lang Qianxing stared at the ribbon he tied Qin Lang’s hair for a while. He seemed to understand why Qin Lang took him down, but he also didn’t seem to understand anything.
Qin Lang didn’t rush him, he just stood behind Qin Lang and watched quietly.
Such a peaceful scene was broken by a new sound not far from the dilapidated temple.
Lang Qianxing’s first reaction was to take off Qin Lang’s clothes, and regardless of whether he would be scolded or not, he quickly dried it again with a technique and put it on Qin Lang’s shoulders.
Qin Lang opened his eyes and frowned at him.
Without waiting for him to speak, Lang Qianxing said, “Master, someone is here.”
“I know.” Qin Lang was still displeased, but he still put on the robe he put on him.
When Lang Qianxing saw him wearing it, he was not afraid of being punished by him. Compared with punishment, he was even more reluctant to let others see his master appearance that was wearing only a thin lining.
As soon as Qin Lang was dressed, several other passers-by were ushered into this small dilapidated temple. When the first two men came in, they were stunned when they saw Qin Lang and Lang Qianxing. Then, after looking around the whole temple, they came in with a luxuriously dressed young man and a beautiful girl. Then came two tall people who were well dressed holding swords, these four should be guards.
They were strangers to each other that just happened to be sheltering from the rain in the same dilapidated temple, so neither side meant to greet the other.
Until one of the guards searched the ruined temple and couldn’t find any dry kindling material. The torrential rain was so heavy that except for the land where Qin Lang was staying, the rest of the place was leaking more or less, and the windows that were easy to dismantle were already wet from the rain.
“This young master…” The guard cupped his hands towards Qin Lang, apparently wanting to use their fire to dry their young master’s clothes.
“If you need it, you can use it.” Qin Lang replied without the other party finishing speaking.
His clothes were already dry, and Lang Qianxing did not seal his cultivation, so ordinary rain would not wet his clothes, the fire was of no use to them.
“Thank you very much.” The man cupped his hands again, saying politely.
“Mas…” Lang Qianxing paused, swallowed the last word, leaned behind Qin Lang and said, “Master…”
“Mm.” Qin Lang responded that he knew.
Lang Qianxing could understand it naturally, so he stopped talking, and didn’t randomly look at the person on the other side.
It’s just that the eyes of the young master on the other side turned around on them, as if to say that Qin Lang and Lang Qianxing both looked similar in age, but they were master and disciple.
The rain still had no tendency to stop or weaken, so Qin Lang closed his eyes to meditate. When he woke up, it was already dark.
But the rain still continued. Although it was no longer pouring like before, it was also raining very densely. It was hard to say whether there was any shelter around, so the people in the dilapidated temple did not leave.
As soon as Qin Lang opened his eyes, Lang Qianxing handed a rice cake to him.
“Master, are you hungry?” Lang Qianxing smiled slyly. Where did he get the glutinous rice cake in the barren mountains? Of course, from his storage ring. He was not afraid of being punished by Qin Lang because there’s outsiders.
With such a little naive thought, Qin Lang couldn’t help bending the corners of his mouth slightly, and took the rice cake and water from Lang Qianxing’s hands.
Lang Qianxing pursed his lips and didn’t let his smile appear to make those strangers laugh at him.
The second time he saw master smile, the reason was him. It feels so good.
The night is getting late. Those few people on the opposite side also ate something and were making a bed for his young master.
Their movements were very quiet, it seemed that they did not want to disturb Qin Lang.
Lang Qianxing was carrying a sword on his back, dressed well like a chivalrous warrior of any sect or faction. Qin Lang’s indifferent appearance is the standard appearance of an expert outside the world. Obviously it’s better not to make these two unhappy.
Their young master was already very sleepy, Qin Lang could hear him yawn several times with his eyes closed. The young master seemed to have just laid down when the girl who came with them whispered to one of the guards that she wanted to relieve herself at once.
It was pitch black outside, so the girl went around the Buddha statue in the ruined temple, leaving for a distance which the men could hear.
After a while, Qin Lang heard a guard on the opposite side say, “It seems that miss Wu has been gone for a long time, why hasn’t she come back yet?”
“The dark makes it hard to see, will she accidentally fall somewhere?”
“…old second, go take a look.”
Qin Lang opened his eyes.
“I said, you’d better not go.” Lang Qianxing was wiping the red sword that Qin Lang gave him, and snorted when he saw the worried appearance of the men.
The few men were unhappy, but they didn’t want to disturb their resting young master. They only looked at Lang Qianxing with contempt, and then one of them went around the Buddha statue to find the little girl.
Qin Lang got up and moved his legs after sitting for a long time.
“Master, just sit down, I’ll do it.” Lang Qianxing put away his sword and looked at Qin Lang with a smile.
Qin Lang asked him, “Why hasn’t the rain stopped?”
Lang Qianxing stopped smiling, took the sword out of the scabbard again, and began to sway around the ruined temple.
The three men across from them all put their hands on their swords at their waists and looked at Qin Lang duo vigilantly.
Qin Lang completely ignored their reactions and only looked at where Lang Qianxing stopped in the dilapidated temple every time.
The faces of the three people on the opposite side were full of doubts. They felt that the master and disciple were too weird.
Strange to say, when Lang Qianxing slashed in the air with his sword in the southwest direction, the rain stopped outside. Almost at the same time, Lang Qianxing said, “Master, it stops.”
Desolate mountains, dilapidated temples, rainy nights! The three of them swallowed their saliva in unison. Isn’t this the classic scene of ghosts and monsters in folklore stories?
Looking at the appearance of the two, they don’t look like ordinary men. They’re so perfect, they’re like…just like they were painted!
“Dare to ask the two of you, who exactly are you?” the headed guard asked boldly.
Lang Qianxing held the sword in his arms, raised his eyebrows and said: “It seems that your brother has been out for a long time, aren’t you going to have a look? And your young master, it doesn’t look like he could sleep peacefully in this kind of place. Why did he sleep so deeply?”
The three of them were startled and immediately went to call their young master, but no matter how the three shouted or even shook his hands, their young master showed no sign of waking up.
The three panicked.
“You…you are…”
Qin Lang: “Qianxing!”
It was the first time that he was addressed so affectionately by his master. Even though he was slightly rebuked, Lang Qianxing immediately felt a beautiful flower in his heart. He quickly became serious, and walked around the Buddha statue with his sword in hand.
One of the three wanted to keep up with Lang Qianxing, but he was afraid that Qin Lang would take advantage of one less of them to attack their young master, so he did not dare to leave.
“We are not demons.” Qin Lang looked at the three and explained coldly.
The three quickly believed, because Lang Qianxing brought the demon back! Also take their brothers back together! It wasn’t known how he managed to bring back a half-human, half-snake monster and a burly man by himself.
“Snake demon, seven hundred years. This temple is her cave.” Lang Qianxing looked at Qin Lang, “Master, there are many skeletons in her cave. There must be a lot of people who have come to harm…”
The three big men hugged their young master and shivered as they watched Qin Lang and his apprentice discuss what kind of medicinal pills to turn the snake demon into a pill furnace.
“Two…masters, can you save our young master and brother first?”
It is also fortunate that this snake monster eats people alive. Their brother is just in a coma and has not been digested. Otherwise, if it is replaced by a person who sucks human energy, they’re afraid that they would have become a mummified corpse now.
Their young master was poisoned by a bit of the snake venom, which was not serious. Qin Lang detoxified him and he soon woke up after.
The reason why the snake demon took a fancy to them is that this young master is from the imperial family, he has a certain dragon aura in him. If they eat him, your cultivation will increase greatly.
As for how they met the snake demon, it was a common routine. The delicate girl was bullied by a group of bullies, and the righteous and awe-inspiring young master came to rescue. On the way back, there was a sudden heavy rain, so he had to enter the dilapidated temple to avoid the rain, and unconsciously sent himself to the entrance of the demon’s cave.
Why didn’t the snake demon simply eat them before, and have to make them go to its door to eat them? Because it is easy to be punished. The spiritual demon cultivation tribulation that they have to endure is more difficult than human.
Those who try to take shortcuts, the demon beast that cultivates using the evil way, although their cultivation level rises fast, the disaster also comes fast. Therefore, such demon beasts will often find cover for themselves. Just like this snake demon, it built the cave under the temple and set up a formation around it, trying to hide from heaven and cross the sea.
Qin Lang and Lang Qianxing rescued the little prince named Xuanyuan Qi. When he woke up, he first thanked Qin Lang and the two for saving their lives, and then invited them to walk along the way, saying that they would be treated well when they returned to the imperial city.
Lang Qianxing originally thought that Qin Lang would be dismissive and said indifferently ‘No thanks’, but Qin Lang agreed.
The little prince is just a bear child. He was bored at home and sneaked out to play, but he was still a little conscious of his safety so he brought a few guards, although it was of no use.
He originally had a luxury carriage, but because the snake demon took a fancy to him, the horse went crazy and rushed towards the cliff. Fortunately, the four guards quickly brought him back. Then the five people got lost, and then he rescued the girl disguised by the snake demon, and finally met Qin Lang and the others.
The way back was not too difficult, but it took a while to get from the dilapidated temple to the populated village.
After arriving at the bustling and rowdy imperial city, Qin Lang and Lang Qianxing were treated as guests and lived in the palace. After two days of rest, they caught up with the lantern festival.
Qin Lang felt that his husband would not miss an ancient dating show like the Lantern Festival.
Sure enough, before it was dark, Lang Qianxing came to him and proposed to go to the Lantern Festival.
The reason why Lang Qianxing dared to mention is that Qin Lang’s cultivation this time is not like the kind of hard and pure cultivation he imagined. Although he has not yet fully understood what kind of cultivation Qin Lang is doing, he feels that Qin Lang will not reject him.
Why is he so confident, of course, because his master is so indulgent in him that he can’t help but take another step.
His intuition told him that he was a little different to Qin Lang.
